I just watched Sandy in an episode of Naked City, from 1962. That's a great TV show, from way back. The episode was: Idylls of a Running Back. She's in her early 20's in that episode, just a wisp of a beautiful, young woman. Watch it, and she will break your heart. She is so touching in it.
I couldn't agree more. I probably will get jeers for this comparison, however...please hear me out. I compare Sandy with Audrey Hepburn. Like Audrey, Sandy had a doe-like, porcelain beauty, soft voice, and a fragility, vulnerability, and gentleness. I can cite the original Sabrina, and Sweet November. Both films make me want to hold and protect the lead lady character, for reasons I gave, above.
This is a loving, gorgeous tribute to our Sandy Dennis. I loved her. I tracked her down at HB studios in NYC. I was already retired frim show business at 30 but I just wanted to be near her. I studied under her direction. It was a year to remember, I was in LA when she passed away from ovarian cancer at age 54. I asked her once if she ever thought abiut her mortality. She said, "Only my immortality, darling. We all laughed because her brilliant way she communicated. SUPRENE INTELLUGENCE. Maybe Meryl Streep is in Sandy's league as far as intuitive genius is concerned. It is impossible not to fall in love with Miss Dennis.
She was not of this earth. We were lucky to be graced with her time here. What a nice retro of her work. I first "met" Sandy watching Who's Afraid? as a dumb teen.
I always watched any film with Sandy Dennis in it, because I always loved her acting and supported her characters. She was amazing! This combo with a great song is like a perfect resumé of her brief career. RIP.
Just saw "Out of Towners" (1970) for the first time and found her wonderful, so looked up her name and found this lovely tribute. Sad that she passed away so young.
Dear Hepburned, I can't thank enough for this. What a gorgeous angel she was. She was alive with Bella Abzug and Betty Friedan. And she was FREE-ER. Let the ladies choose which way they want to go.
A terrific actress who is often overlooked these days and largely unknown to the last generation or two. I was lucky enough to come across her in The Four Seasons and she's never disappointed since. An actress whose resume is definitely worth your time.
Great choice of soundtrack - one of the all time pure pop classics IMHO. I remember seeing the band on their first TV interview being asked about their name as few people outside Liverpool are familiar with the term. They said they chose it because people would mistakenly call them ‘The L.A’s which is hilarious! I’m sure Sandy Denis would have approved. 🥰
Very nice. I knew her Niece and painted a painting for her of her Aunt Sandy. How ironic the end of this video, much like the picture I painted from. She was a very eccentric beautiful woman.
So far, I've only seen her in three films: "Splendor in the Grass" (1961), "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (1966), and "The Fox" (1967). I really need to see more of her films. I can't get enough of this video. She had such a unique look. Her face and her look represented the 1960s and 1970s American cinema when we started to see more actors start to look less glamorous and glossy and more like everyday people. If she made it to 80, I wonder what roles she would be tackling today.
My Sandy Dennis "holy grail" performances are two TV productions: "A Hatful of Rain" from 1967, and "Wilson's Reward" from 1980. I can't find them anywhere.
Thank you for this nice work! She's my favourite actress - I see some kind of magical touch in her smile. Gone too soon. Wherever you are Sandy, here's to you.
Thanks for putting together this tribute. Arrived here via a sleeve note in Al Stewart's: 'Zero she flies' album. Glad I did. Will definitely be checking out some of her films.
Woody Allen was sharp enough to give Sandy Dennis a perfect role in his superior film Another Woman. It was her last high quality role. Her talent was wasted so many times it is infuriating.

I adore her distinctive quality!

Beautiful tribute to one of the best and most underrated actresses Sandy Dennis. Rip beautiful Sandy.
Indeed. RIP 🙏😔

I'm not sure why, but that was a perfect song to go with a tribute to such a great woman. How can ovarian cancer happen to such a gorgeous woman?!

She was a different kind of actress that is why I liked her more.
Sandy would be proud. So many wonderful memories of Sandy, you didn't miss a beat.
She was great! She was one of my acting teachers. She was agreat woman!
God, she was so versatile . She should have been used more in films. So unique . loved her
Such a beautiful video - thank you for this.

My favorite actress. She’s incredibly missed.

That was amazing! Came here from watching your Diana Rigg (Emma Peel) tribute. Keep it going!!
Just beautiful
💖💜🧡
Thank You for this!
Yes a lady who marched to the beat of her own drummer. She was very fond of cats.
So far, I've only seen her in three films: "Splendor in the Grass" (1961), "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?" (1966), and "The Fox" (1967). I really need to see more of her films.

Ben Koeberle You should see "Up The Down Staircase." Sandy was superb in that great movie.
INTERNETWORK Thanks so much! I'll have to check out those when I have the chance. :-)
My heart breaks I couldn’t meet her
I had a crush on her in my youth. She was such a beautiful woman.
wonderful vid Hepburned. Thank you so much. Sandy was/is an angel
I love u sandy
In "The Out of Towners" the image of her running from the dog in central park with her husbands (Lemmon) shoes is a scene I'll never forget.
My Sandy Dennis "holy grail" performances are two TV productions: "A Hatful of Rain" from 1967, and "Wilson's Reward" from 1980. I can't find them anywhere.
Thank you for this nice work! She's my favourite actress - I see some kind of magical touch in her smile. Gone too soon. Wherever you are Sandy, here's to you.
Awesome.....
Great actress; would be 83 today! Great montage here. Interesting trivia: she lived with Eric Roberts, 19 years her junior--Sandy like 'em young (;-p)
oh, wow...thank you for making this.
We miss u sandy
Perfect choice of a song to go with a mini-tribute, to beautiful, lovely, enchanting Sandy! You are "Spot on", with that selection!
One of a kind ..
Thank you. Another great video you have created!
Hey, you did a FANTASTIC job with the editing! i thoroughly enjoyed your video.
Thanks for putting together this tribute. Arrived here via a sleeve note in Al Stewart's: 'Zero she flies' album. Glad I did. Will definitely be checking out some of her films.
FYI....LOVE your videos!!! Thanks!
Woody Allen was sharp enough to give Sandy Dennis a perfect role in his superior film Another Woman. It was her last high quality role. Her talent was wasted so many times it is infuriating.
Sandy also preferred the stage to film work, which is a shame for us movie fans. She deserved at least a dozen more movies.
Trying to find two of her movie... lost it...
What movie is at 1:51? Thanks!
That was an episode of the TV series "The Equalizer".
You call that a tribute? Really?
Make your own then.
Roy was my best friends and sandy and her friends we was part family.
